  1. RIP Ken Parker https://kenparkerarchtops.com

    Reeves Gabrels playing a Fly w/ Bowie and on his own The Sacred Squall of Now solo record was my north star of cool in high school in the mid-90s to such an extent that I just learned he passed when a high school friend heard and thought of me to pass along the news.

    Ken’s Youtube is also great https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TDuWp2Bg7MQ

  2. just got back from three days in Manhattan [NPR foley sample of the white noise of car traffic and honking, and of scaffolding being put up or town down] and had pizza for lunch all three days; Patsy’s in Harlem, Prince Street, and Sofia.

    Each was incredible in its own way. Sofia’s slices are so, so thin, but still have that perfect crunchy/soft "wow” that it practically melts in your mouth.

  5. kinda funny in a non-ha-ha way that wearing a mask indoors now says “I have covid" in addition to saying “I’m a debbie downer” but I’ll keep wearing these damned things

  6. We gave our now-refurbished stand mixer to a friend who bakes very well, very regularly.

    While I carried it from our condo to her car, the glass bowl tipped off of the pins it rests on and smashed onto the ground into a million pieces. The mixer still works but now I need to find her a bowl.

    What a move, sheesh.

    I tried to find the last time I posted about something a lot like this happening to me before on mastodon but it predated social media, 😆: https://pizza.slow.high.quality.gravely.pizza/sellhhhh-drop-a-tv/

  7. Often Repeated in the Same Conversation, Sometimes Immediately

    The grandfather said to their grandson, “….” The grandson, unable to context switch when spoken to casually, said “What?”

  9. junior (seven next weekend!) is up in his room playing legos and singing “Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah” which he knows on account of how often I have https://sunramusic.bandcamp.com/album/pink-elephants-on-parade on, he’s got not other association with it at all.

    tempting to look for bootlegs that this hints exist. it sure would be nice if they were already collected into a volume 2 re: “there are countless ad hoc recordings of Ra performing Disney tunes”
